Re:
SUB2010 -115 The Preserve at Glenmore Preliminary Plat
The Zoning and Current Development Division of the Albemarle County Department of Community Development
will recommend approval of the proposed easement plat referred to above when the following items have been
satisfactorily addressed. (The following comments are those that have been identified at this time. Additional
comments or conditions may be added or eliminated bases upon further review.) Each comment is preceded by the
applicable reference to the Albemarle County Code.
1. [Sec. 14- 303.B.21 Zoning Classification. COMMENT: This parcel is not subject to ZMA 06 -16, but it is
subject to SP 06-3 1 (conditions attached). Replace the reference to the ZMA, and provide a reference to the
SP. Per condition #2 of the SP, the Rural Areas portion of the Glenoaks development shall be developed in
general accordance of the conceptual plan provided by kg Associates, dated 8/1/07 (copy attached). Your
proposed subdivision is not consistent with the conceptual plan. Two options are:
a. Proceed with the subdivision as proposed: By platting a subdivision that does not meet the
conditions of the SP, you will eliminate your ability to ever take advantage of the SP for the stream
crossing because you would never be able to comply with the conditions. Any future desire to
provide a stream crossing would require a new SP.
b. Revise the subdivision to be in accord with the conceptual plan required by the SP.
Please note that the entrance to Running Deer is limited to Emergency Access Only. This is due to the
proffers associated with ZMA06 -16 and the approval of Carroll Creek Road as a private street. The
private street approval occurred during approval of ZMA 06 -16.
2. [Sec. 14- 302.A.4] Private easements. COMMENT: Provide deed book and page number for Ex. 20'
storm drainage easement called out on sheet 2.
3. [Sec. 14 -306] Private streets information. COMMENT: Provide required information, per this section,
for the proposed private street. Provide ownership information on the plat. The cover sheet indicates it will
be owned and maintained by the Glenoaks Homeowners Association, but this is incorrect, based on other
information you have provided. Planning Commission approval of the proposed private street is required.
Your request has been received and is being processed.
4. [Sec. 14- 308.1] Groundwater assessment information. COMMENT: Tier H Groundwater assessment fee
is required for each lot less than 21 acres.
5. [Sec. 14-400,402, 403] Minimum lot requirements, lot shape, lot frontage. COMMENT: As proposed,
the subdivision does not meet the minimum lot requirements. Dimensions and curve data are not provided,
therefore Lot 9 frontage cannot be verified. The "pipe stem" giving this lot frontage makes this an odd -
shaped lot.
6. COMMENT: [Sec. 14- 410.A, 435] Standards for all streets and alleys: Consider the completion of street
access and upgrade of the stream culvert on Carroll Creek Road in conjunction with this subdivision. This
is not a requirement, only a comment.
Contents of Final Plat and Division 3- Documents and Information to be Submitted with Final Plat/ Comments (for
your information):
All requirements of Chapter 14 will apply, however I am providing you with the following comments of things I
noticed during the review of the preliminary plat submitted; these items do not have to be addressed at this time. (This
does not constitute a review of the final plat.)
1. [Sec. 14 -303] Statement of consent to division. COMMENT: Note, verbatim, is required on the plat.
2. [Sec. 14- 303.G] Ownership of common areas. COMMENT: If the plat is revised to match the conceptual
plan that is a condition of the SP, please provide information relating to the ownership of "Lot 26." Please
note that this area is zoned RA and common areas would be considered lots and must meet all requirements
of Section 10 of the Zoning Ordinance.
3. [Sec. 14- 303.M] Street names. COMMENT: Blue Heron Road has not yet been approved; the road name
must be approved prior to final site plan approval.
4. [Sec. 14- 303.0, P] Signature panels, notary panels. COMMENT: Signature and notary panels, per this
section, must be provided.
5. [Sec. '4- 309,310, 416] Soils work. COMMENT: Health Department approval is required prior to final
plat approval. Please submit three (3) sets of soils work for each parcel less than 21 acres.
6. [Sec. 14 -311] COMMENT: Infrastructure improvement plans, computations, and documents must be
approved prior to final plat approval.
7. [Sec. 14 -317] Instrument evidencing maintenance of certain improvements. COMMENT: A property
maintenance agreement is required to be approved by the County Attorney and signed by the owner(s) for
the proposed new private street.
I have attached a letter from the President of the Glenmore Community Association, dated 9/27/10, simply for your
information. I would be happy to facilitate arranging a meeting between you and Mr. Joscelyne if you wish.
